I wrote a tool for comparing engines on different upgrades at various track lengths - comes in handy RailNation.htm - Google Drive - download, open in Chrome ( it's in BETA, so don't blame me if it eats your cat or something )

I search and use a lot on the internet for info, beneath is example

I use paper, pencil and the mind I have to establish with the simple rule of three, which I learned in mathematics in the fifth grade, forty years ago, which engine is more efficient, in Era 6 for example: Lindworm or Olympus. With modernizations made, the Lindworm can travel at a maximum speed of 180 km/h and can hauling to 15 full railcars and Olympus has a maximum speed of 150 km/h and draws up to 85 full wagons.

Using the simple rule of three for Lindworm, I obtain a coefficient of 8.333333333, more simply written 8.(33), and at Olympus I find a coefficient of 56.666666666, more simply 56.(66). Dividing the larger and the smaller: 56.(66):8.(33)=6.8, I find that Olympus is 6.8 times more efficient than Lindworm. This calculation is useful to know which locomotive to use in the End Game.

Is that simple?

Have a nice day!
